With the onset of their Halloween celebration, the ambassador animals of The Oregon Zoo enjoyed a yummy seasonal pumpkin inside their respective habitats. The devouring animals include rhinos, beavers, American black bears, elephants, an African-spurred tortoise, a polar bear, and an African slender-snouted crocodile.
